About three weeks back
I spent three days in Hampi in Karnataka, India, on a personal trip and visited
a number of monuments there.
During the course of my
visits to some of these monuments, I noticed that some carvings seemed to have
been disfigured partially by the vandals. I have no expertise in the matter but
to me as a layman, some of the disfiguring seems to be of recent origin. I am
attaching herewith some of the photos that I took of such carvings on 24th
and 25th January, 2019.
May be these are old disfigurements
and I am totally wrong. I sent an email with those photos to DG Archeological
Survey of India on 7.2.2019 and am awaiting an acknowledgement. I think it is my duty to bring this
apprehension to the notice of my readers and lovers of India’s heritage.
